Saucy Cod Croquettes with Rice

Step 1

If using frozen cod, defrost it beforehand. Roughly chop the cod.

Step 2

Chop the parsley.

Step 3

Add the cod, parsley, beaten eggs, minced garlic & half the bread crumbs to a food processor. (You can also use an immersion blender with a mixing bowl!)

Step 4

Season with salt & pepper. Pulse the mixture without puréeing it.

Step 5

Place the remainder of the bread crumbs on a plate. Using your hands, form the blended mixture into balls. Roll each ball in the bread crumbs.

Step 6

Cook the rice according to the package instructions.

Step 7

Heat a drizzle of oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the breaded balls. Cook for about 5 min on each side. Slightly flatten them with a spatula after turning.

Step 8

Add the crushed tomatoes to the pan. Season with salt & pepper. Cook for 1-2 min.

Step 9

Fluff the cooked rice.

Step 10

Spoon the rice onto a serving plate. Top with the croquettes & sauce. Garnish with extra parsley (optional). Enjoy!
